Q&A with actor Adriano Giannini on June 7

When Pietro (­Domenico Diele), a young repairman, journeys to an electrical station located in a ­remote ­village on the Italian-Slovenian border, he soon gets wrapped up in a mystery involving foul play, human trafficking, and his own past. Meanwhile, Lana (Ksenia ­Rappoport), a Slovenian investigator posing as a bear ­expert to get to the truth, struggles against the climate and the hardened waysof the men (including one played by Emir Kusturica) who live and work there. Shot with a swooping grace befitting its majestic Alpine setting, this heart-pounding thriller proves director Claudio Noce to be a master of suspense.
